Drawing on its high-level technology expertise and its experience in car park payment collection, Thales has developed the WiLiX state-of-the-art car park management system.
WiLiX's three-tier Ethernet-based architecture gives operators real-time access to information as well as powerful non real-time management functions and complete interactive management. All equipment items are networked and can interface with various other systems, including video, vehicle identification and licence plate recognition systems.
In addition to many services also being available online, WiLiX functionalities are completely flexible and adaptable and the system works by upward compatibility with all earlier Thales products.
Key features:
Control of hardware and software peripherals
Control of subset software for readers, smart change machines, CSC 14443, RFID, embedded PC
Equipment-to-equipment communication in degraded mode (no server)
Hardware with PC structure
Advanced flash memory technology (no need for hard drive)
Equipment items: entry/exit terminals, automatic pay stations with industrial-strength information technology and no moving parts (fans, etc.).
Encoded magnetic message redundancy: a patented technique for processing tickets that are unreadable due to high temperature or partial erasure.
Multipark supervision
The system can supervise several car park servers simultaneously, and each server can manage several car parks.
